Hey there, yours truly Phalanx, back again with yet another daily! I must say, keeping up this thing daily has been a pain sometimes... and on occasion, like today, I haven't actually been able to ladder. A full-day road trip to go watch a play with a family... which wasn't bad, but it wasn't really worth it in my opinion .

Since I actually have nothing to show for today, I've decided I'll instead give you readers a poll as to what I should do tomorrow on the ladder to review. Just for some ideas that I've come up with so far, vote in for your favorite game plan! If you have a different crazy suggestion put it in the comments, and anyone else who agrees with that suggestion can also comment with the same idea.

Poll: What limitations do you want to place on Phalanx!?

Speed prism drops (lots of 'em) (6)
 
50%

3 expo before units (3)
 
25%

No control groups (2)
 
17%

No Zealots (1)
 
8%

12 total votes

Your vote: What limitations do you want to place on Phalanx!?

(Vote): No Zealots
(Vote): 3 expo before units
(Vote): Speed prism drops (lots of 'em)
(Vote): No control groups



If you just stopped by to see this but don't usually read my blogs, still leave a vote anyways! I need at least a couple of them!!! In the case of a tie, I'll consider using a mixture of the top suggestions.

Sorry for the lack of battle analysis today, but look forward to a screwed up one tomorrow guys! Have another great day!

No Controll groups actually is not very hard as Protoss, still got all your warpgates, hit f5 for all unit select, and most top players don`t use hotkeys much to controll their army in fight anyways.

Zealots are skipped often by greedy players and since terran started to mix in hellbats they fade out slowly anyways.

3 Expo before units, now that sounds interresting, how are you gonna defend? Tank your rating long enough until you meet players so bad, they can`t punish it, or have a ton of cannons?

Speedprism drops, yup should use more of them.

What I wanna get here at is, none of the above, except for maybe the 3 expo seem particulary "crazy".
So here is an idea for pvt at least. Go into 2 gate pressure, contain terran in his base with sentries, expand to their natural, use stalkers so they don`t leave their base with medivacs, use timewarp/forcefields if they wanna go down their own ramp, use nexus cannon if they wanna break out with siege tanks.
Now That ain`t really a restriction, and I do not know if you wanna ladder a day with a certain constriction or just have 1 crazy game. Usually you make posts with pictures about your games, and no vods right? So a restriction like no controll groups for a day, we would not be able to really appreciate it with pictures anyways I guess.

So one Idea for a constrain to put on yourself: do not use the mouse to change camera location, only arrow keys and camera hotkeys you created yourself and double selecting your controllgroups, last alert and town camera, and idle worker i guess.
No mousescroll, gogo :d

Or play zoomed in on max, Lols :d
